What really stands out is the crowded environment. It just feels crowded and stressful. Not a relaxed campus with good vibes. I noticed some students covering their ears to deal with the loud, stressful environment. Schools should not be like this, especially for the youngest kids because we want them to learn to love school and not be uncomfortable there. My kids cannot wait to leave school, when I would prefer a school where they cannot wait to get there and are not totally burned out long before dismissal time because that builds frustration in young kids. Not great here.

Both my boys go to this school and they're absolutely amazing! My son has an IEP and they have does great progress with him. All the teachers have always gone above a beyond. Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Andrew were both very caring teachers and always went out of their way to make sure to communicate with me.

Our family feels blessed to attend Lakeside Farms. We feel the staff and administration work together to offer a well-rounded education with strong academics, character building, and enrichment.

I've had all 4 of my children at this school and the teachers, staff and principal are great. They're very caring with their students and helpful if a problem should arise. I had two of my children in a Santee school when they were younger and I feel that they weren't as personal. At Lakeside Farms many of the teachers know or family and as well as the principal. It is also a great learning environment, I feel my children have thrived here.

My son is on his second year there, and is doing well. His interest in science has heightened since attending. I'm a big proponent of education and have had him in school the second it was legally possible. His mother and I haven't spoken since 2011, and the staff at the school are very understanding about that. I have been in Lakeside for 38 years, and have known hundreds of individuals who attended Lakeside Farms. Most of them grew up to be upstanding citizens. I am a business owner and professional in the region.

My daughter just entered first grade at Lakeside Farms this year 2013 since we moved from the Poway district. ESS summer school at Lindo Lake was great. She even gave up going to see her BFF during the summer because she wanted to go play at ESS. Anyways, Lakeside Farms....my little one is happy and excited to go everyday day. She likes her new teacher, Ms Hashiguchi and really hopes they win the fund raiser so they can tape Mr T (the principal) to the wall. What a good sport he is. It's gonna be a great year of learning and fun memories at Lakeside Farms:)

I brought my kids here from another school a couple of years ago. The difference is like night and day. Mr. T is awesome. He truly cares about the students and wants the best for them. The office staff is helpful and dedicated. The teachers have been exceptional, especially the fifth grade team. The PTA puts an a lot of activities for families which strengthens the sense of community of Lakeside Farms. I love this school!

I enjoyed the staff. The staff was involved with the students and their families, if the families allowed it. My other daughter who at the time was to young to attend school, loved talking to the teacher and asking questions about their daily activities. The staff assured the students were recieving the same amount of attention and if needed additional attention on certain subjects it was given. The School was all about the family time during holiday's and special events that they were hosting.

I am new to this district this year and have been pleased with this school and staff. my son is in 3rd grade and was having some difficulties with his teacher, I met with the principal and felt like he truly cared and respected my Concerns, and took action right away to change his class. in our last school it was near impossible to change classes and the principal never seamed to care as much as Mr T. I realy am so greatful for this school

This school acts like there in high school and not about the children eduacation. It seems like it is a popularity contest between staff and parents. They need a crash course on bullying for them as well the parfents of the students as well the students. Very uncalled for if your looking for a great school and about your childs eduacation do not go here. People these days are very onesided and it is about the big picture,.

When I first was looking for schools I went to a couple different ones. I met with the princiopal of the school because there the ones who do the hiring and over see the school. I felt it was a great fit. In time I have come to find that this school does not know how to handle small things and make it into big things. Where you feel like you wanna sue the school for there unfair and improper actions. I also will be seeking a new school where my daughter can get a good education and I don't have to worry about if my daughter is going to be properly supervised. When I was on campes last I noticed a young lady getting bullyed and as well the staff did not act right away. The child was very upset about it and was in tears. I felt horrible about it and it broke my heart.
